Easter Hymn, 2012


Christ Jesus, Son of Man
© 2012, Phillip Gaeddert

Christ Jesus, Son of Man, He is the Prince of Peace
The Lion and the Lamb, seated as our High Priest
King of kings, Lord of lords, oh praise His glorious name
King of kings, Lord of lords, now and ever the same

Creator of all things, took wrath in our own stead
Lift up your head and sing, He rose just as He said
King of kings, Lord of lords, give praise to Him above
King of kings, Lord of lords, what wondrous act of love

How can we doubt His word, this Prophet, Priest, and King?
Give praise unto the LORD, and to the cross but cling
King of kings, Lord of lords, now let His praises ring
King of kings, Lord of lords, nothing to Him we bring

Only begotten Son, the truth, the life, the way
The ever faithful One, the grave was not His stay
King of kings, Lord of lords, all praise in glorious day
King of kings, Lord of lords, believe on Him today
